Using AviSynth's AviSource to read it, I get "Evaluate: Unrecognized exception!" The 1.3.1 AVI I have crashes MPC and Vdubmod. The 1.3.1 decoder can decode 1.2.4 clips okay, so the problem must be with the encoding.

But I can't seem to decode, view or open the encoded AVI afterwards. I installed the new version, and the codec seems to encode okay. The old version I was using (1.2.4 I think, there was no way of checking the version number of it) was working great. Sorry but the results i posted before were borked here are the correct onesĢ605 1:44 Pal 25 Fps 720x576 (Real) (cleaned DVD)įfdshow huffyuv12 median 689 MB 1:50 2:50/18 Fpsįfdshow huffyuv12 median 872 MB 1:50 2:40/28 Fps Where (6i) means CorePNG 0.8.2 on defaults, and (9p) means best + auto-delta. Yes, I made sure all of these are really lossless. Is it supposed to be working? (Yes, I'm sure the frames are perfectly identical.) I also can't get it to encode RGB (vdub crashes when I begin encoding).Īnother chapter of another random DVD ("Ghiblies 2", 672x432, 2500 frames, cropped but not filtered). Lagarith doesn't seem to be affected by the "null frames" option when encoding YUV. From all the lossless codecs that I have tried, it offers the best mix of compression, speed, and stability, in my opinion.įor more information and to download it, go here: I personally use this as my standard lossless codec now, replacing huffyuv and vble. It's also open source.Ī reduced resolution mode is currently being implemented, which will be a extremely nice feature for video editors. It does have a null frames option though, which you can enable to make it encode null frames if there is no difference from one frame to the next.

It is an interframe codec (all keyframes) so it works very well for editing. The compression ratio is slightly better than corepng (I didnt enable delta frames in corepng in my test). It runs at about half the speed of huffyuv, so it can work well for capturing video on most systems. It supports a number of colorspaces (RGB24, RGB32, RGBA, YUY2, and YV12). He has made a very nice lossless codec called Lagarith. I'm announcing this for my friend since he's never joined this forum.
